FIELD OF THE TECHNOLOGY

This disclosure relates generally to the field of podiatry, and more particularly, to an open-toed sandal with an integrated bladder filled pouch having a non-evaporative liquid composition, according to one embodiment.

BACKGROUND

An open-toed sandal may be worn in casual situations, such as outside and/or at the beach. The open-toed sandal may be formed from a flat sole (e.g., a sole member) held loosely on a foot by a Y-shaped strap that passes between first and second toes and around either side of the foot. The open-toed sandal may also be held to the foot with a single strap over the top of the foot. The open-toed sandal may not benefit from inserts of a shoe (e.g., ergonomic inserts, massaging inserts) because the open-toed sandal may not fully encapsulate the foot and therefore the inserts may not be held in place when a wearer of the open-toed sandal walks.

SUMMARY

Disclosed is an open-toed sandal with an integrated bladder filled pouch having a non-evaporative liquid composition, according to one embodiment.

In one aspect, an open-toed sandal includes a sole member and a bladder filled pouch filled with a non-evaporative liquid affixed on a top surface of the sole member on which a wearer of the open-toed sandal rests a foot. A shape of the bladder filled pouch contorts as the wearer of the open-toed sandal walks. The contortion of the bladder filled pouch is triggered by a movement of the non-evaporative liquid within the bladder filled pouch (e.g., in response to a pressure placed on the bladder when the wearer walks). A securing support member is connected to the sole member. The securing support member wraps around the sole member to secure the foot in the open-toed sandal.

The bladder filled pouch may retain a memory of a motion of the foot (e.g., when a material forming the pouch progressively changes permanent shape) based on the pressure placed on the bladder filled pouch filled with the non-evaporative liquid when the wearer walks in any direction (e.g., based on a bending of a material forming the bladder filled pouch responsive to a motion of the wearer). The material forming the bladder filled pouch may be latex. A thickness of the bladder filled pouch may be approximately 1 inch thick.

The non-evaporative liquid may be a blend including approximately 96% glycerin, 3% vegetable oil, and/or 1% water. The blend may eliminate a sound of the non-evaporative liquid swishing around in the bladder filled pouch when the wearer walks in any direction (e.g., thereby eliminating an undesirable sound of flatulence when the wearer walks that would otherwise be caused by the movement of the non-evaporative liquid within the bladder filled pouch in response to the pressure placed on the bladder filled pouch when the wearer walks). The bladder filled pouch may be covered with a fabric that is heat pressed with glue and/or attached to contours of the sole member. The fabric may encapsulate the bladder filled pouch in the open-toed sandal, such that the wearer walks on the fabric on the surface of the sole member encapsulating the bladder filled pouch. The open-toed sandal may be a liquid filled massaging flip-flop.

In another aspect, a flip-flop includes a sole member and a pouch filled with a non-evaporative liquid affixed on a top surface of the sole member. A shape of the pouch contorts as the wearer of the flip-flop walks. The contortion of the pouch is responsive to a movement of the non-evaporative liquid within the pouch based on a pressure placed on the bladder when the wearer walks. The flip-flop includes a securing support member connected to the sole member which wraps around the sole member to secure the foot in the flip-flop formed by the sole member connected to the securing support member.

The pouch may retain a memory of a motion of the foot when a material forming the pouch progressively changes permanent shape (e.g., based on the pressure placed on the pouch filled with the non-evaporative liquid) when the wearer walks in any direction (e.g., based on a bending of a material forming the pouch responsive to a motion of the wearer). The material forming the pouch may be latex.

A thickness of the pouch may be approximately 1 inch thick. The non-evaporative liquid may be a blend including approximately 96% glycerin, 3% vegetable oil, and/or 1% water. The blend may eliminate a sound of the non-evaporative liquid swishing around in the pouch when the wearer walks in any direction (e.g., thereby eliminating an undesirable sound of flatulence when the wearer walks that would otherwise be caused by the movement of the non-evaporative liquid within the bladder filled pouch in response to the pressure placed on the bladder filled pouch when the wearer walks).

The pouch may be covered with a fabric that is heat pressed with glue and/or attached to contours of the sole member. The fabric may encapsulate the pouch in the flip-flop, such that the wearer walks on the fabric on the surface of the sole member encapsulating the pouch. The flip-flop may be a liquid filled massaging flip-flop.

In yet another aspect, a method includes affixing a bladder filled pouch filled with a non-evaporative liquid affixed on a top surface of a sole member of a sole member on which a wearer of an open-toed sandal rests a foot. A shape of the bladder filled pouch contorts as the wearer of the open-toed sandal walks. The contortion of the bladder filled pouch is triggered by a movement of the non-evaporative liquid within the bladder filled pouch in response to a pressure placed on the bladder when the wearer walks. A securing support member is connected to the sole member. The securing support member wraps around the sole member to secure the foot in the open-toed sandal. The securing support member is a Y-connection support, a wrap around support, and/or a heel support.

The bladder filled pouch may retain a memory of a motion of the foot when a material forming the pouch progressively may change permanent shape based on the pressure placed on the bladder filled pouch filled (e.g., with the non-evaporative liquid) when the wearer walks in any direction based on a bending of a material forming the bladder filled pouch responsive to a motion of the wearer. The material forming the bladder filled pouch may be latex. A thickness of the bladder filled pouch may be approximately 1 inch thick. The non-evaporative liquid may be a blend including approximately 96% glycerin, 3% vegetable oil, and/or 1% water. The blend including approximately 96% glycerin, 3% vegetable oil, and/or 1% water may eliminate a sound of the non-evaporative liquid swishing around in the bladder filled pouch when the wearer walks in any direction (e.g., thereby eliminating an undesirable sound of flatulence when the wearer walks that would otherwise be caused by the movement of the non-evaporative liquid within the bladder filled pouch in response to the pressure placed on the bladder filled pouch when the wearer walks).

The bladder filled pouch may be covered with a fabric that is heat pressed with glue and/or attached to contours of the sole member. The fabric may encapsulate the bladder filled pouch in the open-toed sandal (e.g., such that the wearer walks on the fabric on the surface of the sole member encapsulating the bladder filled pouch). The open-toed sandal may be a liquid filled massaging flip-flop.

The methods and systems disclosed herein may be implemented in any means for achieving various aspects, and may be executed in a form of a machine-readable medium embodying a set of instructions that, when executed by a machine, cause the machine to perform any of the operations disclosed herein.
